Thanks Steve.  I knew about foreign matter from fish stab wounds.  You'd think that swimming around in salt water would be sterile.  Butt no...Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.

Just diffrent kinds of microbes.
Fishing tackle is an art form and all fish caught on the right tackle are"Gfish"!

I keep a bottle of hydrogen peroxide with my tackle. Even line cuts can get nasty when fish slime is added. Many species of fish have a bit of toxic material on the spines,some worse than others. Very hot water can help as soon as it happens but on a boat that can be a problem. The peroxide won't help that.
Do what you can with that you have where you are

compadre Sheridan, I read that its a good idea to have a small bottle of bleach or even chloride wipes on the boat to clean any cut or fish bite as soon as it happen

When I was a kid and went with my uncle commercial fishing for Yellowtail Snapper with handlines, we would soak our hands in water mixed with bleach to prevent infection. It seemed to work back then.

  You want to prevent an infection period... I always have a plastic bottle of rubbing alcohol in the cabin, and a spray bottle od 50-50 water and clorox on the deck.   its the 151 under the skipper seat,  its usually low or out. ???
  Sometimes antiseptic ointments are good insurance if you have to tape up a cut or wound.  Waterproof tape and steril pads.  Then if on a finger or palm put on a xx large latex glove on to keep the wound clean and dry.  THEN go back to fishing !!!!!!!!!!

I use the little eye-drop bottles -- nozzle pops out to refill w/ whatever:
Betadine, peroxide, ethanol, ammonia, vinegar, etc.

Before I quit killing halibut over 60# we carried a bottle of the cheapest vodka we could get to squirt in the gills of a big butt to calm them down before bringing them in the boat.  I'm sure vodka would work as well as rubbing alcohol for killing the crud in cuts.
